With the increasing demand for clean and sustainable energy, self-powered technologies
based on environmental vibrations have attracted a lot of attention recently. Natural vibration …

Stay cables in cable-stayed bridges are subjected to various types of dynamic excitation
mechanisms under environmental loads. The excited vibrations can have a large amplitude …

A new magnetorheological (MR) damper has been recently developed that delivers a very
fast response to the input current (or magnetic field). This study investigates the effect of the …

Previous studies have shown superior control performance in mitigating vibrations of stay
cables by using passive control devices such as negative stiffness dampers (NSDs) and …

Installation of transverse dampers near the cable-deck anchorage is a commonly used
method for the vibration mitigation of stay cables. Recent studies have demonstrated that the …

By definition, solids and fluids have been characterized with different physical laws. The
behaviour of linear solids, for instance, can be quantified using Hooke's law of elasticity, and …

Recent studies have demonstrated that inerter‐based dampers exhibit superior performance
in mitigating cable vibration over conventional passive viscous dampers (VDs). This paper …

This work proposes a new magnetorheological (MR) damper which can produce sufficient
dam** force within a few millisecond. Firstly, dam** force mechanisms of MR damper …

Despite their superior control performance, active vibration control techniques cannot be
widely used in some engineering fields because of their substantial power demand in …

This article presents a list of suitable techniques and materials leading to the design of an
ultra-fast magnetorheological (MR) valve. Two approaches for achieving the short response …
